Fes El Jdid Holidays from £69

A new riad just seconds away from one of the main thoroughfares of the Medina. Apple Maps gives a more accurate location. Only about 5-10 minute walk away from the Blue Gate and close to many eateries, ATMs, and shops. About 10-15 walk to tanneries, museums, and other major sites. A great place to be situated to allow you to simply wonder around.

The staff were very welcoming and made my stay in Fez very pleasant.

It is in a good location for walking into the Medina. The owner did a very good job at renovating this and giving it a museum feeling with real antiques on display. I didn’t like that the windows were opening into a corridor. The bed linen / comforter and pillows felt like polyester and the mattress was very hard so I used the comforter to soften it. The breakfast was not to my taste despite being cooked on the site: coffee very diluted , no real bread , no yogurt and again polyester tablecloth and napkins. The swimming pool is for pictures only as it is an indoor not heated and accessible only from 2-6 pm as the rest of 20 hours “the water has to be filtered “. It’s not bad but we were spoiled at Riad Idra in Marrakech I guess. I was fair and gave it 4 stars. You can take nice pictures from inside

The shower drainage was really bad. We told the person working there that the water was not going down . He said the next day would fix it. We stayed for two nights. However, the next night we still could not take the shower.

I would definitely stay here again. The team at Riad Adarissa - Haddou and Ana in particular - were so welcoming and warm. I am so appreciative of their service and generosity over my say. The location of the riad is great and near landmarks - like the Blue Gate - so getting lost/navigation back to the riad is easy. Stepping out onto the main street turning right are local markets with mountains of fruit, home goods, local food supplies. It's great. Turning left are more local craftspeople stores with leather and textiles.l etc on the way to the famous tanneries. At the riad, breakfast is free and you can pay for a Moroccan dinner cooked in the kitchen by Ana. However outside on the main street are numerous really good restaurants you can enjoy as well. In particular Sodfa which is so homely to the right. And to the left I had Pastilla the Fes speciality and one of the others. The terrace in the roof has a great view of the rooftops of Fes. The Riad is beautiful. Housekeeping is great and the road is very clean. Yet the pictures of the riad make the Riad look a little bit more luxurious than it is. I would absolutely stay here again. But a few tweaks - like toiletries provided, double curtains on the room I was in rather than just a sheer one. Just a few cosmetic tweaks would make it perfect.
